EXHIBIT 99.1

Piedmont Office Realty Trust Reports Fourth Quarter and Annual 2014 Results and 2015 Guidance
ATLANTA, February 5, 2015 --Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont" or the "Company") (NYSE:PDM), an owner of primarily Class A office properties located in select sub-markets of major U.S. cities, today announced its results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014.

Highlights for the Three Months and Year Ended December 31, 2014:

Achieved Core Funds From Operations ("CFFO") of $0.39 per diluted share and $1.49 per diluted share for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014, respectively;
Completed approximately 2.2 million square feet of leasing, or 10% of the portfolio, for the year ended December 31, 2014, including leasing approximately 321,000 square feet during the fourth quarter;
Leased up two value-add properties to 88% and 98%, respectively, during the year; and
Purchased 25.2 acres of land adjacent to its 400 TownPark building in Lake Mary, Florida during the fourth quarter.

Donald A. Miller, CFA, President and Chief Executive Officer said, "2014 was a pivotal year for Piedmont as we began to see our leasing efforts over the last several years start to pay off in the form of improving cash NOI and increasing occupancy during the year. Further, we were very pleased to lease over two million square feet in '14 given that over half of that square footage was attributable to new tenants, particularly at some of our value-add properties.”

Results for the Quarter ended December 31, 2014

Piedmont's net income available to common stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2014 was $12.5 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, as compared with $29.6 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2013. The prior quarter's results included $0.09 per diluted shares in gains related to properties sold during the fourth quarter of 2013 whereas the current quarter's results reflect $0.04 per diluted share of additional depreciation and amortization expense resulting from properties acquired as well as several large tenant build outs over the last twelve months. Per share results were favorably impacted by the reduction in weighted average shares outstanding as a result of shares repurchased pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase plan.

Revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 were $146.7 million, as compared with $141.5 million for the same period a year ago, primarily attributable to increased reimbursement revenue as a result of the expiration of lease abatements for operating expenses on certain recently commenced leases and increased rental income from the net increase in occupancy over the last year.






Property operating costs increased to $62.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, as compared to the prior period of $58.3 million, primarily as a result of additional expenses associated with properties acquired since the fourth quarter of 2013, as well as increased occupancy at certain assets. General and administrative expenses were $6.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $5.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 primarily due to increased compensation costs driven by stronger stock performance during the current year.

Funds From Operations ("FFO") for the current quarter totaled $62.1 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, comparable to $64.0 million, or $0.40 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, reflecting a $2.0 million decrease in insurance proceeds received. Per share results were favorably impacted by decreased average shares outstanding as a result of stock buybacks pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase program.

Core FFO, which excludes acquisition costs and the above-mentioned insurance recoveries, totaled $59.6 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, comparable to $59.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 with the per share results reflecting decreased average shares outstanding as a result of stock buybacks pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase program.

Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”) for the fourth quarter of 2014 totaled $41.2 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared to $12.8 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2013 primarily due to decreased non-incremental capital expenditures as a result of the completion of certain large tenant build outs during the current year.

Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2014

Piedmont's net income available to common stockholders for the year ended 2014 was $43.3 million million, or $0.28 per diluted share as compared with $98.7 million, or $0.60 per diluted share for the prior year. The prior year includes $26.5 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in operations related to real estate assets sold over the previous twelve months, whereas the current year includes $3.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share of such items. In addition, the current year includes $29.1 million, or $0.19 per diluted share in additional depreciation and amortization expense resulting from properties acquired as well as the completion of several large tenant build outs over the last two years. Per share results were also favorably impacted by the reduction in weighted average shares outstanding as a result of shares repurchased pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase plan.

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $566.3 million as compared with $549.6 million for the prior year, primarily reflecting increased revenues associated with properties acquired during 2013 and 2014, the commencement of several significant leases, and the expiration of operating expense abatements for several significant tenants, offset by the loss of revenue associated with the expiration of a large governmental lease in the Company's Washington, D.C. portfolio as of December 31, 2013.

Property operating expenses were $239.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $220.8 million for the prior year, primarily reflecting additional expenses associated with properties acquired during 2013 and 2014 and increases in occupancy at certain properties. General and administrative expense was $23.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $21.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to higher compensation costs driven by stronger stock performance in the current year.






FFO for the current year totaled $236.5 million, or $1.53 per diluted share, as compared with $250.5 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily reflecting a $4.8 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, reduction in insurance recoveries in the current year. Per share results were favorably impacted by the reduction in weighted average shares outstanding as a result of shares repurchased pursuant to the Company's stock repurchase plan.

Core FFO, which excludes the casualty and litigation related expenses and recoveries mentioned above, as well as transaction costs associated with acquisitions during the year, totaled $230.1 million, or $1.49 per diluted share, for the current year, as compared to $240.5 million, or $1.46 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily reflecting the expiration and reduction in weighted average shares outstanding discussed above.

AFFO for the year ended December 31, 2014 totaled $118.2 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, as compared to $117.0 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2013, reflecting the impact of the above items as well as decreased non-incremental capital expenditures as a result of the completion of certain large tenant build outs during the current year.

Leasing Update

The Company's total leasing volume for the year was 2.2 million square feet, approximately 321,000 square feet of which was executed during the fourth quarter of 2014. Just over half of both the annual and quarterly activity related to new tenants, with the remainder representing renewals. Further, of the 1.2 million square feet of new leasing executed during the year, 310,000 square feet, or 26%, was related to the Company's value-add portfolio.

The Company's overall portfolio was 88% leased as of December 31, 2014, up from 87% a year ago. Further, the stabilized portfolio was 89% leased and the weighted average lease term remaining was approximately 7.1 years as of December 31, 2014. Cash basis net operating income for the quarter was $78.4 million, up from $75.4 million in third quarter 2014, primarily reflecting continued improvement in the Company's economic occupancy as abatements periods for certain significant tenants continue to expire. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had approximately 1.3 million square feet of commenced leases that were in some form of abatement, as well as approximately 0.4 million square feet of executed leases for currently vacant space yet to commence. Details outlining Piedmont's significant upcoming lease expirations, the status of current leasing activity, and a schedule of remaining significant abatement expirations can be found in the Company's quarterly supplemental information package available at www.piedmontreit.com.

Capital Markets and Financing Activity

Acquisition and Disposition Activity

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, Piedmont purchased approximately 25.2 acres of land adjacent to its 400 TownPark building in Lake Mary, Florida. The land is located within the amenity-rich Town Park mixed-use development consisting of office, retail, residential and a hotel. The acquisition adds to Piedmont's developable land holdings and allows Piedmont to control a site that is complementary to the 400 TownPark building.

Additionally, subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into the following acquisition and disposition transactions:






January 16, 2015, acquired Park Place on Turtle Creek, an approximately 177,000 square foot, 14-story Class A office building located in Dallas, TX for $46.6 million. The building is situated on 1.24 acres of land in the prestigious submarket of Uptown/Turtle Creek and complements another of Piedmont's recent acquisitions, One Lincoln Park, and is in close proximity to a host of sought-after amenities including many upscale shops and restaurants as well as the Katy Trail. The building is currently 88% leased to a diverse group of tenants; and
January 30, 2015, disposed of 3900 Dallas Parkway in Plano, TX, a 120,000 square foot, 5-story building that was leased to Cinemark for a sales price of $26.2 million.


Other Events
Director Transition
As previously announced, W. Wayne Woody, the Company's Chairman, passed away suddenly in January. Effective January 2, 2015, Barbara B.

The following are some of the factors that could cause the Company`s actual results and its expectations to differ materially from those described in the Company`s forward-looking statements: market and economic conditions remain challenging and the demand for office space, rental rates and property values may continue to lag the general economic recovery causing the Company's business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and access to capital to be adversely affected or otherwise impact performance, including the potential recognition of impairment charges; the success of the Company's real estate strategies and investment objectives, including the Company's ability to identify and consummate suitable acquisitions; lease terminations or lease defaults, particularly by one of the Company's large lead tenants; the impact of competition on the Company's efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to existing leases; changes in the economies and other conditions of the office market in general and of the specific markets in which the Company operates, particularly in Chicago, Washington, D.C., and the New York metropolitan area; economic and regulatory changes, including accounting standards, that impact the real estate market generally; additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants; adverse market and economic conditions may continue to adversely affect the Company and could cause the Company to recognize impairment charges or otherwise impact the Company's performance; availability of financing and the Company's lending banks' ability to honor existing line of credit commitments; costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations; uncertainties associated with environmental and other regulatory matters; potential changes in political environment and reduction in federal and/or state funding of the Company's governmental tenants; the Company may be subject to litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition; the Company's ability to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code; and other factors detailed in the Company`s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2013, and other documents the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(1) Includes adjustments for consolidated properties, including discontinued operations, and for our proportionate share of amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint ventures.
(2) Excludes depreciation of non real estate assets.
(3) Capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, leasing costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, leasing costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building and renovations that change the underlying classification of a building are excluded from this measure.

*Definitions

Funds From Operations ("FFO"): FFO is calculated in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, and gains or losses on consolidation, adding back depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in





similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO may provide valuable comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income. We believe that FFO is a beneficial indicator of the performance of an equity REIT. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do; therefore, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.

Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): We calculate Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for certain non-recurring items such as gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, acquisition-related costs and other significant non-recurring items. Such items create significant earnings volatility. We believe Core FFO provides a meaningful measure of our operating performance and more predictability regarding future earnings potential. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income; therefore, it should not be compared to other REITs' equivalent to Core FFO.

Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): AFFO is calculated by deducting from Core FFO non-incremental capital expenditures and acquisition-related costs and adding back non-cash items including non-real estate depreciation, straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Although AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs, we believe it provides a meaningful indicator of our ability to fund cash needs and to make cash distributions to equity owners. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of our liquidity.

*Definitions

Core EBITDA: Core EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses, gains or losses from sales of property, or other significant non-recurring items. We do not include impairment losses in this measure because we feel these types of losses create volatility in our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our ongoing business. We believe Core EBITDA is a reasonable measure of our liquidity. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of cash flows from operating activities or other GAAP basis liquidity measures. Other REITs may calculate Core EBITDA differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): Property NOI is defined as real estate operating income with the add-back of corporate general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, and impairment losses and the deduction of net operating income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations. We may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis,





the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are eliminated. The Company uses this measure to assess its operating results and believes it is important in assessing operating performance. Property NOI is a non-GAAP measure which does not have any standard meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): Same Store NOI is calculated as the Property NOI attributable to the properties owned or placed in service during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods. Same Store NOI excludes amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint venture assets. We may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are eliminated. We believe Same Store NOI is an important measure of comparison of our properties' operating performance from one period to another. Other REITs may calculate Same Store NOI differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc.
Financial Highlights
As of December 31, 2014


Financial Results (1) 

Funds from operations (FFO) for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $62.1 million, or $0.40 per share (diluted), compared to $64.0 million, or $0.40 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2013. FFO for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $236.5 million, or $1.53 per share (diluted), compared to $250.5 million, or $1.52 per share (diluted), for the same period in 2013. The decrease in dollar amount of FFO for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was principally due to reduced insurance recoveries in 2014 related to casualty events and litigation settlements. The decrease in dollar amount of FFO for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was also impacted by reduced operating income attributable to tenant transition-related downtime at Aon Center in Chicago, IL, and 6021 Connection Drive in Irving, TX, and lease expirations at 3100 Clarendon Boulevard and 4250 North Fairfax Drive in Arlington, VA, offset somewhat by operating income contributions from newly acquired properties, leases that have recently commenced, and leases under which operating expense recovery abatements have burned off.

Core funds from operations (Core FFO) for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $59.6 million, or $0.39 per share (diluted), compared to $59.9 million, or $0.37 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2013. Core FFO for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $230.1 million, or $1.49 per share (diluted), compared to $240.5 million, or $1.46 per share (diluted), for the same period in 2013. Core FFO is defined as FFO with incremental adjustments for certain non-recurring items such as net insurance recoveries or losses from casualty events and litigation settlements, acquisition-related costs and other significant non-recurring items. The change in Core FFO for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 is primarily attributable to the items described above for changes in FFO, with the exception of the insurance recoveries related to casualty events and litigation settlements, which were removed from Core FFO since they are considered to be non-recurring.

Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $41.2 million, or $0.27 per share (diluted), compared to $12.8 million, or $0.08 per share (diluted), for the same quarter in 2013. AFFO for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $118.2 million, or $0.76 per share (diluted), compared to $117.0 million, or $0.71 per share (diluted), for the same period in 2013. The increase in AFFO for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily related to the items described above for changes in FFO and Core FFO, in addition to decreased non-incremental capital expenditures in 2014. Partially offsetting the decrease in non-incremental capital expenditures was the deduction of a greater amount of straight line rent adjustments in 2014 when compared to 2013. Piedmont experienced a period of high lease expirations from 2011 to 2013. Given the leasing environment over the last several years, many of the recent lease transactions include rental abatements, which typically occur at the beginning of a new lease's term. Many of the replacement or renewal leases with rental abatements are in the early stages of the new leases' terms, resulting in increased straight line rent adjustments for the Company. The elevated non-incremental capital expenditures in 2013 when compared to 2014 was also related to the high volume of renewal lease transactions completed by the Company during the period from 2011 to 2013; the decrease in non-incremental capital expenditures in 2014 is reflective of the end of this high lease expiration and re-leasing period.

The changes in per share amounts of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 were also impacted by the reduced weighted average shares outstanding in 2014 as a result of the Company's stock repurchase program. Since the beginning of 2013, Piedmont has repurchased 13.4 million shares at an average price of $16.96 per share.

Operations & Leasing

On a square footage leased basis, our total office portfolio was 87.7% leased as of December 31, 2014, as compared to 87.5% in the prior quarter and 87.2% a year earlier. Please refer to page 26 for additional leased percentage information.

The weighted average remaining lease term of our portfolio was 7.1 years(2) as of December 31, 2014 as compared to 7.1 years at December 31, 2013.

As previously disclosed, Piedmont commenced the redevelopment of its 3100 Clarendon Boulevard property, a 252,000 square foot office and retail property located in Arlington, VA, during the first quarter of 2014. The building's existing retail tenants will remain in occupancy during the redevelopment. Therefore, from an accounting standpoint, the office component of the building will be out of service and the retail portion of the building, comprised of approximately 28,000 square feet, will remain in service during the redevelopment. However, for the purposes of statistical reporting throughout this supplemental report, the entire building has been removed from Piedmont's operating portfolio.

of 3100 Clarendon Boulevard, please refer to the Financing and Capital Activity section within the Financial Highlights of this report.

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, the Company completed 321,000 square feet of total leasing. Of the total leasing activity during the quarter, we signed renewal leases for 157,000 square feet and new tenant leases for 164,000 square feet. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, we completed 2,180,000 square feet of total leasing activity, inclusive of activity associated with our unconsolidated joint venture assets. The consolidated office portion of this total was 2,115,000 square feet, consisting of 959,000 square feet of renewal leases and 1,155,000 square feet of new tenant leases. The average committed capital cost for all leases signed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 at our consolidated office properties was $5.01 per square foot per year of lease term. Average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases signed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 was $4.27 and the same measure for new leases was $5.44 (see page 33).

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, we executed three leases greater than 20,000 square feet at our consolidated office properties. Information on those leases is set forth below.

Piedmont focuses its marketing efforts on large corporate office space users. The average size of lease in the Company's portfolio is approximately 30,000 square feet. Due to the large size and length of term of new leases, Piedmont typically signs leases several months in advance of their anticipated lease commencement dates. Presented below is a schedule of uncommenced leases greater than 50,000 square feet and their anticipated commencement dates. Lease renewals are excluded from this schedule.

Occupancy versus NOI Analysis

Piedmont had been in a period of high lease rollover from 2010 to 2013. This lease rollover and the overall economic slowdown during this period have resulted in a decrease in leased percentage, some rental rate rolldowns, and an even larger decrease in economic leased percentage due to rental abatement concessions provided under many of the new leases and lease renewals. In turn, these abatements and lower rental rates have resulted in a lower cash basis Same Store NOI than might otherwise be anticipated given the overall leased percentage and the historical relationship between leased percentage and Same Store NOI. As of December 31, 2014, our overall leased percentage was 87.7% and our economic leased percentage was 81.3%. The difference between overall leased percentage and economic leased percentage is attributable to two factors:

1.
leases which have been contractually entered into for currently vacant space but have not yet commenced (amounting to approximately 444,000 square feet of leases as of December 31, 2014, or 2.1% of the office portfolio); and
2.
leases which have commenced but the tenants have not commenced paying full rent due to rental abatements (amounting to 1.3 million square feet of leases as of December 31, 2014, or a 4.3% impact to leased percentage on an economic basis). Please see the chart below for a listing of major contributors to this factor.

As the executed but not commenced leases begin and the rental abatement periods expire, there will be greater Same Store NOI growth than might otherwise be expected based on changes in overall leased percentage alone during that time period.

Due to the current economic environment, many recently negotiated leases provide for rental abatement concessions to tenants. Rental abatements typically occur at the beginning of a new lease's term. Since 2010, Piedmont has signed approximately 14.5 million square feet of leases within its consolidated office portfolio. Due to the large number of new leases in the Company's portfolio, abatements provided under those new leases have impacted the Company's current cash net operating income and AFFO. Presented below is a schedule of leases with abatements of greater than 50,000 square feet that are either currently under abatement or will be so within the next twelve months.

Dispositions (1) 
On November 3, 2014, Piedmont entered into a binding contract to sell 3900 Dallas Parkway, a 120,000 square foot office building located in Plano, TX, for $26.2 million, or $218 per square foot. The sale of the building will permit the Company to divest a non-strategic property and redeploy the proceeds into a different property congruent with the Company's strategic plan. Subsequent to quarter end, Piedmont completed the sale of the property and redeployed the sale proceeds of the 100% leased suburban asset into an urban infill asset with earnings growth and value accretion potential, Park Place on Turtle Creek, in the Uptown/Turtle Creek submarket of Dallas; please see additional details on the acquisition below. For additional information on the disposition, please refer to page 37.

Acquisitions
On November 21, 2014, Piedmont completed the purchase of 25.2 acres of land adjacent to its 400 TownPark property in Lake Mary, FL. Situated at the intersection of Interstate 4 and Highway 417, the land is located within a mixed-use development consisting of office, retail, residential and a hotel. The Company believes that the site will become even more desirable over the next several years upon the completion of Orlando's ring road, which has been fully approved and runs adjacent to the property. The site will accommodate over 650,000 square feet of office space, 160,000 square feet of which is currently entitled. The acquisition adds to the Company's developable land holdings and allows the Company to control a site that is directly complementary to 400 TownPark. For additional information on the Company's land holdings, refer to page 39.

On December 17, 2014, Piedmont entered into a binding contract to purchase Park Place on Turtle Creek, a fourteen-story, 177,000 square foot office building located in the Uptown/Turtle Creek submarket of Dallas, TX. The purchase price is $46.6 million, or $263 per square foot, well below the estimated replacement cost for the building. The building was constructed in 1986 and is 88% leased, offering immediate earnings growth and value accretion potential through leasing up existing vacancies and resetting below-market leases to market rental rates. Well-located along Dallas's prestigious Turtle Creek Boulevard, the building affords tenants an excellent amenity base, including numerous proximate restaurants and hotels, and immediate access to Highland Park, Dallas's wealthiest community and the housing location of choice for Dallas area executives. The property is located adjacent to The Mansion on Turtle Creek, one of Dallas's top-rated hotels, and is only steps away from the Katy Trail, a popular walking and biking trail. The acquisition, coupled with the disposition of 3900 Dallas Parkway mentioned above, is consistent with two of the Company’s strategic objectives to: 1) recycle out of non-strategic properties and 2) increase ownership in high-quality assets within its core operating markets. Subsequent to quarter end, Piedmont completed the acquisition of the property with the proceeds received from the sale of 3900 Dallas Parkway.

Finance
On December 15, 2014, Piedmont closed on a $50 million unsecured term loan. The proceeds of the loan were primarily used to complete the acquisition of Park Place on Turtle Creek in Dallas, TX (see above for additional details). Specifically, the proceeds were used to fund the timing gap between the acquisition of Park Place on Turtle Creek and the subsequent disposition of 3900 Dallas Parkway. The loan has a maturity date of April 1, 2015; there is one three-month extension option available which would extend the maturity date to July 1, 2015. The loan has a variable interest rate; Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options under this facility, including the prime rate and various length LIBOR locks. The selected rate is subject to an additional spread based on Piedmont’s then current credit rating. As of December 31, 2014, the interest rate for LIBOR based loans was LIBOR + 115 basis points. Piedmont intends to repay this loan with proceeds from a proposed debt issuance anticipated to be completed during the first half of 2015.

In 2015, one of the Company’s secured debt instruments will mature. During the first half of 2015, the Company intends to issue fixed-rate debt to repay the maturing secured debt, as well as the $50 million unsecured term loan described above. In anticipation of procuring the new fixed-rate debt and considering the historically low interest rate environment, Piedmont entered into a forward starting swap hedging program to partially protect the Company against rising interest rates and to lock a portion of the interest rate of the future financing. Specifically, under this hedging program and through the hedge instruments, the Company will be effectively locking the treasury component of the all-in interest rate for its future planned financing. During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company entered into four, seven-year forward starting swaps with a notional amount of $250 million for a potential debt issuance. At current swap spread levels, the Company effectively locked the treasury component for a possible 2015 debt issuance at approximately 2.04%.

During the fourth quarter, Piedmont entered into three forward-starting interest rate swaps in order to fix the future interest rate for the $300 million unsecured term loan that was put in place in 2011, the maturity date of which was recently extended to 2020. The swaps fix the effective interest rate for the loan for the period of time from the original maturity date of November 22, 2016 to the new maturity date of January 15, 2020. The swaps have a combined notional amount of $300 million and a blended rate of 2.20%, resulting in an effective fixed rate for the extension period of 3.35% inclusive of the spread for the loan.

Development
During the first quarter of 2014, Piedmont commenced the redevelopment of its 3100 Clarendon Boulevard property, a 252,000 square foot office and retail property located adjacent to the Clarendon Metro Station in Arlington, VA. Until the end of 2013, the property had been predominantly leased to the U.S. Government (Defense Intelligence Agency) for the previous 15+ years. The expiration of the U.S. Government's lease afforded Piedmont the opportunity to upgrade and reposition the property in order to attract private sector tenants and to capture the

On April 1, 2014, Piedmont early-adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASU 2014-08. As such, Piedmont will no longer reclassify to discontinued operations the operating income associated with newly-sold single assets or small portfolios which do not represent a strategic shift or significant impact on Piedmont's future operations. There will be no restatement for prior periods and all operating income associated with assets either sold or under binding contract to sell as of the end of the first quarter of 2014 will continue to be reflected in discontinued operations. Assuming future sales do not meet the new criteria for reclassification as discontinued operations, such future sales will not be presented in discontinued operations.

incremental value potential for the location (attributable primarily to nearby amenities desirable to tenants, including housing, retail, and transportation). The project remains on schedule; the
office tower redevelopment should be completed during the first several months of 2015 and the retail portion of the redevelopment should be completed during the first half of 2015. During
the redevelopment, the office component of the building will be out of service and the retail portion of the building, comprised of approximately 28,000 square feet, will remain in service. However, for the purposes of statistical reporting on the Company's assets in this supplemental report, the entire building will be removed from Piedmont's operating portfolio. It is anticipated that the costs to redevelop the building (exclusive of capitalized implied financing costs) will be approximately $31 million to $33 million, approximately $15.9 million of which had been recorded in work in progress as of December 31, 2014. Following the completion of the redevelopment, the Company anticipates incurring additional re-leasing costs.

During the fourth quarter of 2013, Piedmont announced the development of Enclave Place, a 301,000 square foot office building located in Houston, TX. The eleven-story building is being constructed on Piedmont's 4.7 acre development site adjacent to its 1430 Enclave Parkway property and located within a deed-restricted and architecturally-controlled office park in Houston's Energy Corridor. Ground was broken in April 2014, and physical construction is targeted to be completed during the third quarter of 2015. The development costs are anticipated to be approximately $85 million to $90 million, inclusive of leasing costs. Approximately $33.0 million had been recorded in work in progress as of December 31, 2014.

Stock Repurchase Program
During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company repurchased 6,682 shares of common stock under its share repurchase program at an average price of $17.48 per share. Since the stock repurchase program began in December 2011, the Company has repurchased a total of 18.9 million shares at an average price of $16.92 per share, or approximately $319.6 million in aggregate (before the consideration of transaction costs). As of quarter end, Board-approved capacity remaining for additional repurchases totaled $37.0 million under the stock repurchase plan.

Subsequent Events

On February 5, 2015, the Board of Directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the first quarter of 2015 in the amount of $0.21 per common share outstanding to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 27, 2015. The dividend is to be paid on March 20, 2015.

Subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter of 2014, Piedmont implemented a forward starting swap hedging program to partially protect the Company against rising interest rates and to lock a portion of the interest rate of a planned financing in 2016. One of the primary uses of the planned 2016 financing is the repayment of a maturing $125 million secured portfolio loan. Under this hedging program and through the hedge instruments, the Company will be effectively locking the treasury component of the all-in interest rate for its future planned financing. Thus far in 2015, the Company has entered into three forward starting swaps with a notional amount of $200 million for a possible ten-year tenored unsecured bond offering in 2016. At current swap spread levels, the Company effectively locked the treasury component for a possible 2016 debt issuance at approximately 2.19%.

Net debt is calculated as the total principal amount of debt outstanding minus cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash. The increase in net debt over the last year is primarily attributable to property acquisitions completed during calendar year 2014, as well as capital expenditures and stock repurchases, all of which were largely funded with debt.
(4)
Core EBITDA margin is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by total revenues (including revenues associated with discontinued operations).
(5)
The fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by the sum of interest expense, principal amortization, capitalized interest and preferred dividends. The Company had no preferred dividends during any of the periods presented; the Company had capitalized interest of $688,177 for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, $541,349 for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, $460,251 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, $384,843 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, and $31,486 for the quarter ended December 31, 2013; the Company had principal amortization of $262,284 for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, $193,560 for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, and $64,223 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
(6)
Core EBITDA is annualized for the purposes of this calculation. The average net debt to Core EBITDA ratios for the fourth quarter of 2013 and the first, second, third and fourth quarters of 2014 are higher than our historical performance on this measure primarily as a result of increased net debt attributable to property acquisitions completed during 2013 and 2014, as well as capital expenditures and stock repurchases, all of which were largely funded with debt. This measure has also been impacted by downtime associated with recent re-tenanting efforts, as well as rent roll downs. For the purposes of this calculation, we use the average daily balance of debt outstanding during the period, less cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash as of the end of the period.

(3)
Figures presented on this line may not tie back to the relevant sources as some activity is attributable to property operations and is, therefore, presented in property net operating income.
(4)
Acquisitions consist of Arlington Gateway in Arlington, VA, purchased on March 4, 2013; 5 & 15 Wayside Road in Burlington, MA, purchased on March 22, 2013; Royal Lane Land in Irving, TX, purchased on August 1, 2013; 5301 Maryland Way in Brentwood, TN, the remaining equity interest in which was purchased on August 12, 2013; 6565 North MacArthur Boulevard in Irving, TX, purchased on December 5, 2013; One Lincoln Park in Dallas, TX, purchased on December 20, 2013; 161 Corporate Center in Irving, TX, purchased on December 30, 2013; 5 Wall Street in Burlington, MA, purchased on June 27, 2014; 1155 Perimeter Center West in Atlanta, GA, purchased on August 28, 2014; and TownPark Land in Lake Mary, FL, purchased on November 21, 2014.
(5)
Dispositions consist of 1111 Durham Avenue in South Plainfield, NJ, sold on March 28, 2013; 1200 Enclave Parkway in Houston, TX, sold on May 1, 2013; 350 Spectrum Loop in Colorado Springs, CO, sold on November 1, 2013; 8700 South Price Road in Tempe, AZ, sold on December 30, 2013; 11107 and 11109 Sunset Hills Road in Reston, VA, sold on March 19, 2014; 1441 West Long Lake Road and 4685 Investment Drive in Troy, MI, sold on April 30, 2014; and 2020 West 89th Street in Leawood, KS, sold on May 19, 2014.
(6)
Other investments consist of operating results from our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures and our redevelopment projects. Additional information on our unconsolidated joint ventures and redevelopment projects can be found on page 39. The operating results from both the office and retail portions of 3100 Clarendon Boulevard in Arlington, VA, are included in this line item, consisting of net operating income/(loss) of $42,000 and ($188,000) for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, respectively, and net operating income of $2.1 million and $7.9 million for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, respectively.
(7)
The decrease in Washington, D.C. Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily attributable to the expiration of several leases at 4250 North Fairfax Drive in Arlington, VA, and 9211 Corporate Boulevard in Rockville, MD, offset somewhat by increased rental income associated with the renewal of the National Park Service lease at 1201 Eye Street in Washington, D.C. An additional contributor to the decrease in Washington, D.C. Same Store Net Operating Income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was the expiration of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency lease during 2013 at One Independence Square in Washington, D.C.
(8)
The increase in Chicago Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily related to the expirations of the rental abatement periods associated with several new leases at 500 West Monroe Street in Chicago, IL. The decrease in Chicago Same Store Net Operating Income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily related to tenant transitions at Aon Center in Chicago, IL. The major contributors to the decrease in net operating income contribution from Aon Center were: 1) downtime between the expiration of the BP lease and the commencement of one of the replacement leases with Integrys, 2) gross rental abatements associated with several of the replacement leases for the space formerly occupied by BP, and 3) rental rate roll downs associated with several new leases replacing the expired BP lease.
(9)
The percentage contribution from Chicago to our total Same Store Net Operating Income is smaller than our geographic concentration percentage in Chicago, which is presented on an ALR basis (see page 34), primarily because of the large number of leases with gross rent abatements and a number of leases yet to commence for currently vacant spaces (the projected gross rent for which is included in our ALR calculation). As the gross rent abatements burn off and as the executed but not commenced leases begin, the Same Store Net Operating Income percentage contribution from Chicago should increase and should be more closely aligned with our Chicago concentration percentage as presented on page 34.
(10)
The decrease in Minneapolis Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily due to a renewal-related contraction by US Bancorp and downtime and/or rental abatements associated with several replacement leases for spaces formerly occupied by US Bancorp at US Bancorp Center in Minneapolis, MN.
(11)
The decrease in Dallas Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily related to a tenant transition at 6021 Connection Drive in Irving, TX. Specifically, the decrease in net operating income contribution from 6021 Connection Drive was predominantly related to: 1) the downtime between the expiration of the Nokia lease at the end of 2013 and the commencement of the Epsilon lease, which occurred at the end of the second quarter of 2014, 2) rental abatement concessions provided to Epsilon which expire at the beginning of January 2015, and 3) the recognition of lease restructuring income from Nokia in 2013.
(12)
The increase in Other Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily related to: 1) increased rental income attributable to increased economic occupancy at several buildings, including Glenridge Highlands Two and The Medici, both in Atlanta, GA, 400 TownPark in Lake Mary, FL, and River Corporate Center in Tempe, AZ, and 2) the expiration of the rental abatement period for a new tenant and the sale of density rights at Sarasota Commerce Center II in Sarasota, FL.

The decrease in Chicago Same Store Net Operating Income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily related to tenant transitions at Aon Center in Chicago, IL. The major contributors to the decrease in net operating income contribution from Aon Center were: 1) downtime between the expiration of the BP lease and the commencement of one of the replacement leases with Integrys, 2) operating expense recovery abatements (which abatements are not included in straight line rent adjustments) associated with several of the replacement leases for the space formerly occupied by BP, and 3) rental rate roll downs associated with several new leases replacing the expired BP lease.
(9)
The percentage contribution from Chicago to our total Same Store Net Operating Income is smaller than our geographic concentration percentage in Chicago, which is presented on an ALR basis (see page 34), primarily because of the large number of leases with operating expense recovery abatements (which abatements are not included in straight line rent adjustments) and a number of leases yet to commence for currently vacant spaces (the projected gross rents for which are included in our ALR calculation). As the operating expense recovery abatements burn off and as the executed but not commenced leases begin, the Same Store Net Operating Income percentage contribution from Chicago should increase and should be more closely aligned with our Chicago concentration percentage as presented on page 34.
(10)
The decrease in Washington, D.C. Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily attributable to the expiration of several leases at One Independence Square in Washington, D.C., 4250 North Fairfax Drive in Arlington, VA, and 9211 Corporate Boulevard in Rockville, MD, offset somewhat by increased rental income associated with the renewal of the National Park Service lease at 1201 Eye Street in Washington, D.C.
(11)
The decrease in Minneapolis Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily due to a renewal-related contraction by US Bancorp and downtime associated with a replacement lease for space formerly occupied by US Bancorp at US Bancorp Center in Minneapolis, MN.
(12)
The decrease in Dallas Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily related to a tenant transition at 6021 Connection Drive in Irving, TX. Specifically, the decrease in net operating income contribution from 6021 Connection Drive was predominantly related to: 1) the downtime between the expiration of the Nokia lease at the end of 2013 and the commencement of the Epsilon lease, which occurred at the end of the second quarter of 2014, and 2) the recognition of lease restructuring income from Nokia in 2013.
(13)
The increase in Los Angeles Same Store Net Operating Income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was primarily related to increased rental income associated with the new lease with Guidance Software at 1055 East Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena, CA, which commenced in mid-2013, along with increased rental income associated with new leases with Union Bank and Front Porch Communities at 800 North Brand Boulevard in Glendale, CA, both of which commenced in early 2014.
(14)
The increase in Other Same Store Net Operating Income for the three months and the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the same periods in 2013 was primarily related to: 1) increased rental income under the restructured Independence Blue Cross lease at 1901 Market Street in Philadelphia, PA, 2) increased rental income as a result of recent leasing activity at several buildings, including Glenridge Highlands Two and The Medici, both in Atlanta, GA, 400 TownPark in Lake Mary, FL, and Eastpoint I in Mayfield Heights, OH, and 3) the sale of density rights at Sarasota Commerce Center II in Sarasota, FL.

All of Piedmont's outstanding debt as of December 31, 2014 was interest-only debt with the exception of the $33.3 million of debt associated with 5 Wall Street located in Burlington, MA.
(2)
Amount represents the outstanding balance as of December 31, 2014, on the $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility and the $50 million unsecured term loan. Two other loans, the $300 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2011 and the $300 million unsecured term loan that closed in 2013, have stated variable rates. However, Piedmont entered into $300 million in notional amount of interest rate swap agreements which effectively fix the interest rate on the 2011 unsecured term loan at 2.39% through November 22, 2016 (please see page 21 for information on additional swap agreements for this loan that will become effective after November 22, 2016), assuming no credit rating change for the Company, and $300 million in notional amount of interest rate swap agreements which effectively fix the interest rate on the 2013 unsecured term loan at 2.78% through its maturity date of January 31, 2019, assuming no credit rating change for the Company. The 2011 unsecured term loan and the 2013 unsecured term loan, therefore, are reflected as fixed rate debt.
(3)
The weighted average interest rate is a weighted average rate for amounts outstanding under our $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility, our unsecured senior notes and our unsecured term loans. As presented herein, the weighted average stated interest rate is calculated based upon the principal amounts outstanding.
(4)
The initial maturity date of the $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility is August 19, 2016; however, there are two, six-month extension options available under the facility providing for a final extended maturity date of August 21, 2017. For the purposes of this schedule, we reflect the maturity date of the facility as the final extended maturity date of August 2017.

(1)
Debt covenant compliance calculations relate to specific calculations detailed in the relevant credit agreements.
(2)
Defined as EBITDA for the trailing four quarters (including the Company's share of EBITDA from unconsolidated interests), less one-time or non-recurring gains or losses, less a $0.15 per square foot capital reserve, and excluding the impact of straight line rent leveling adjustments and amortization of intangibles divided by the Company's share of fixed charges, as more particularly described in the credit agreements. This definition of fixed charge coverage ratio as prescribed by our credit agreements is different from the fixed charge coverage ratio definition employed elsewhere within this report.
(3)
Defined as net operating income for the trailing four quarters for unencumbered assets (including the Company's share of net operating income from partially-owned entities and subsidiaries that are deemed to be unencumbered) less a $0.15 per square foot capital reserve divided by the Company's share of interest expense associated with unsecured financings only, as more particularly described in the credit agreements.
(4)
Please refer to the Indenture dated May 9, 2013, and the Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture dated March 6, 2014, for additional information on the relevant calculations.
(5)
For the purposes of this calculation, we use the average daily balance of debt outstanding during the period, less cash and cash equivalents and escrow deposits and restricted cash as of the end of the period.
(6)
Fixed charge coverage is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by the sum of interest expense, principal amortization, capitalized interest and preferred dividends. The Company had no preferred dividends during the periods ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The Company had capitalized interest of $688,177 for the three months ended December 31, 2014, $2,074,620 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, and $31,486 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company had principal amortization of $262,284 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and $520,067 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.
(7)
Interest coverage ratio is calculated as Core EBITDA divided by the sum of interest expense and capitalized interest. The Company had capitalized interest of $688,177 for the three months ended December 31, 2014, $2,074,620 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014, and $31,486 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

(1)
Credit rating may reflect the credit rating of the parent or a guarantor. Where differences exist between the Standard & Poor's credit rating for a tenant and the Moody's credit rating for a tenant, the higher credit rating is selected for this analysis.
(2)
The classification of a tenant as "not rated" does not indicate that the tenant is of poor credit quality, but can indicate that the tenant or the tenant's debt, if any, has not been rated. Included in this category are such tenants as Independence Blue Cross, McKinsey & Company and KPMG.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc.
Leased Percentage Information
(in thousands)

Impact of Strategic Transactions on Leased Percentage
The Company’s stated long-term growth strategy includes the recycling of capital from certain stabilized or non-core assets into office properties located in focused operating markets. Some of the recently acquired properties are value-add properties which are defined as low-occupancy properties acquired at attractive bases with earnings growth and value appreciation potential achievable through leasing up such assets to a stabilized occupancy. Because value-add properties often have large vacancies, they negatively affect Piedmont’s overall leased percentage. In order to identify the effect they have on Piedmont’s overall leased percentage, the following information is being provided. The analysis below: 1) removes the impact of the value-add properties from Piedmont’s overall office portfolio total under the heading “Stabilized Portfolio Analysis”; 2) provides a year-over-year comparison of leased percentage on the same subset of properties under the heading “Same Store Analysis”; and 3) provides a year-over-year comparison of leased percentage on the same subset of stabilized properties under the heading "Same Store Stabilized Analysis".

(1)
The population analyzed consists of consolidated office leases executed during the period with lease terms greater than one year. Retail leases, as well as leases associated with storage spaces, management offices, and unconsolidated joint venture assets, were excluded from this analysis.
(2)
For the purposes of this analysis, the cash rents last in effect for the previous leases were compared to the initial cash rents of the new leases in order to calculate the percentage change.
(3)
For the purposes of this analysis, the accrual basis rents for the previous leases were compared to the accrual basis rents of the new leases in order to calculate the percentage change. For newly signed leases which have variations in accrual basis rents, whether because of known future expansions, contractions, lease expense recovery structure changes, or other similar reasons, the weighted average of such accrual basis rents is used for the purposes of this analysis.
(4)
For leases under which a tenant may use, at its discretion, a portion of its tenant improvement allowance for expenses other than those related to improvements to its space, an assumption is made that the tenant elects to use any such portion of its tenant improvement allowance for improvements to its space prior to the commencement of its lease, unless the Company is notified otherwise by the tenant. This assumption is made based upon the historical usage patterns of tenant improvement allowances by the Company's tenants.
(5)
Represents leases signed at our consolidated office assets that do not qualify for inclusion in the analysis primarily because the spaces for which the new leases were signed had been vacant for greater than one year.

NOTE:
This information is presented for our consolidated office assets only and excludes activity associated with storage and licensed spaces.
(1)
For leases under which a tenant may use, at its discretion, a portion of its tenant improvement allowance for expenses other than those related to improvements to its space, an assumption is made that the tenant elects to use any such portion of its tenant improvement allowance for improvements to its space prior to the commencement of its lease, unless the Company is notified otherwise by the tenant. This assumption is made based upon the historical usage patterns of tenant improvement allowances by the Company's tenants.
(2)
During 2014, we completed one large, 15-year lease renewal and expansion with a significant capital commitment: Jones Lang LaSalle at Aon Center in Chicago, IL. If the costs associated with this lease were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases and total leases completed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 would be $2.12 and $4.47, respectively.
(3)
During 2011, we completed two large, 15-year lease renewals with significant capital commitments: NASA at Two Independence Square in Washington, D.C. and GE at 500 West Monroe Street in Chicago, IL. If the costs associated with these renewals were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases in 2011 would be $2.80. During 2012, we completed one large, long-term lease renewal with an above-average capital commitment with US Bancorp at US Bancorp Center in Minneapolis, MN. If the costs associated with this renewal were to be removed from the average committed capital cost calculation, the average committed capital cost per square foot per year of lease term for renewal leases in 2012 would be $2.73.
(4)
Since 2010, Piedmont has selectively employed a value-add strategy for new property acquisitions. Piedmont defines value-add properties as those acquired with low occupancies at attractive bases with earnings growth and value appreciation potential achievable through leasing up such assets to stabilized occupancies. Because value-add properties often have large vacancies, many of which have not previously been leased (first generation spaces), the leasing of those vacancies negatively affects Piedmont’s contractual tenant improvements on a per foot and a per foot per year basis for new leases.

(1)
The investment in this property was converted from a structured finance investment to an owned real estate asset through a UCC foreclosure of an equity ownership interest on March 31, 2011. The purchase price presented represents the estimated fair value of the real estate assets comprising the property as of the date of the transaction. The percent leased at acquisition reflects the space leased by Marsh USA as vacant, as the tenant had already announced plans to vacate prior to Piedmont's assumption of ownership of the asset.
(2)
While the property was 100% leased at acquisition, it is anticipated that the single-tenant building will become vacant at the end of the current lease term and the building will have to be re-leased on a multi-tenant basis. For this reason, the building was acquired as a value-add property. Piedmont purchased its joint venture partner's equity interest in the asset. The gross value of the asset agreed upon by the partners for the buyout is presented on this schedule as the purchase price.
(3)
The percent leased at acquisition reflects the space leased by BV Card Assets as vacant, as the tenant had already announced plans to vacate prior to Piedmont's acquisition of the property.

Supplemental Definitions

Included in this section are management's statements regarding certain non-GAAP financial measures provided in this supplemental report and reasons why management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors about the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures are included beginning on page 42.
Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): AFFO is calculated by deducting from Core FFO non-incremental capital expenditures and acquisition-related costs and adding back non-cash items including non-real estate depreciation, straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Although AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs, we believe it provides a meaningful indicator of our ability to fund cash needs and to make cash distributions to equity owners. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income, as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities or as a measure of our liquidity.
 
Annualized Lease Revenue ("ALR"): ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) rental payments (defined as base rent plus operating expense reimbursements, if payable by the tenant on a monthly basis under the terms of a lease that has been executed, but excluding a) rental abatements and b) rental payments related to executed but not commenced leases for space that was covered by an existing lease), by (ii) 12. In instances in which contractual rents or operating expense reimbursements are collected on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, such amounts are multiplied by a factor of 1, 2, or 4, respectively, to calculate the annualized figure. For leases that have been executed but not commenced relating to un-leased space, ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) the monthly base rental payment (excluding abatements) plus any operating expense reimbursements for the initial month of the lease term, by (ii) 12. Unless stated otherwise, this measure excludes our unconsolidated joint venture interests.
 
Core EBITDA: Core EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses, gains or losses from sales of property, or other significant non-recurring items. We do not include impairment losses in this measure because we feel these types of losses create volatility in our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our ongoing business. We believe Core EBITDA is a reasonable measure of our liquidity. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of cash flows from operating activities or other GAAP basis liquidity measures. Other REITs may calculate Core EBITDA differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.
 
Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): We calculate Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for certain non-recurring items such as gains or losses on the early extinguishment of debt, acquisition-related costs and other significant non-recurring items. Such items create significant earnings volatility. We believe Core FFO provides a meaningful measure of our operating performance and more predictability regarding future earnings potential. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income; therefore, it should not be compared to other REITs' equivalent to Core FFO.
 
EBITDA: EBITDA is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is an appropriate measure of our ability to incur and service debt. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, as a measure of our liquidity or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating activities. Other REITs may calculate EBITDA differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.
 
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): FFO is calculated in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, and gains or losses on consolidation, adding back depreciation and amortization on real estate assets, and after the same adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO may provide valuable comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income. We believe that FFO is a beneficial indicator of the performance of an equity REIT. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do; therefore, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.
 
Gross Assets: Gross assets is defined as total assets with the add back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets.
 
Gross Real Estate Assets: Gross real estate assets is defined as total real estate assets with the add back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets.
 
Incremental Capital Expenditures: Incremental Capital Expenditures are defined as capital expenditures of a non-recurring nature that incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives ("Leasing Costs") incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, Leasing Costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, Leasing Costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building and renovations that change the underlying classification of a building are included in this measure.
 
NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures: NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures is defined as Property NOI attributable to our interests in properties owned through unconsolidated partnerships. We present this measure on an accrual basis and a cash basis, which eliminates the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue. NOI from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures is a non-GAAP measure and therefore may not be comparable to similarly defined data provided by other REITs.
 
Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures: Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures are defined as capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. We exclude first generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions from this measure, in addition to other capital expenditures that qualify as Incremental Capital Expenditures, as defined above.
 
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): Property NOI is defined as real estate operating income with the add-back of corporate general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, and impairment losses and the deduction of net operating income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations. We may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are eliminated. The Company uses this measure to assess its operating results and believes it is important in assessing operating performance. Property NOI is a non-GAAP measure which does not have any standard meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
 
Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): Same Store NOI is calculated as the Property NOI attributable to the properties owned or placed in service during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods. Same Store NOI excludes amounts attributable to unconsolidated joint venture assets. We may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are eliminated. We believe Same Store NOI is an important measure of comparison of our properties' operating performance from one period to another. Other REITs may calculate Same Store NOI differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs.
 
Same Store Properties: Same Store Properties is defined as properties owned or placed in service during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods. Same Store Properties excludes unconsolidated joint venture assets. We believe Same Store Properties is an important measure of comparison of our stabilized portfolio performance.

(1)
Economic leased percentage excludes the square footage associated with executed but not commenced leases for currently vacant spaces and the square footage associated with tenants receiving rental abatements (after proportional adjustments for tenants receiving only partial rental abatements).
(2)
Although Piedmont owns 49.5% of the asset, it is entitled to 100% of the cash flows under the terms of the property ownership entity's joint venture agreement.
(3)
The property consists of approximately 334,000 square feet; however, due to the square footages referenced in several leases, the rentable square footage is currently 324,000 square feet. As the existing leases expire, the affected spaces will be re-leased to the correct square footages.

Such information is subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as well as known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue” or similar words or phrases that are predictions of future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters.

The following are some of the factors that could cause our actual results and expectations to differ materially from those described in our forward-looking statements: market and economic conditions remain challenging in some markets we operate in and the demand for office space, rental rates and property values may continue to lag the general economic recovery causing our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and access to capital to be adversely affected or otherwise impact performance, including the potential recognition of impairment charges; the success of our real estate strategies and investment objectives, including our ability to identify and consummate suitable acquisitions; acquisitions of properties may have unknown risks and other liabilities at the time of acquisition; lease terminations or lease defaults, particularly by one of our large lead tenants; the impact of competition on our efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to existing leases; changes in the economies and other conditions of the office market in general and of the specific markets in which we operate; economic and regulatory changes, including accounting standards, that impact the real estate market generally; additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants; adverse market and economic conditions may continue to adversely affect us and could cause us to recognize impairment charges or otherwise impact our performance; availability of financing and our lending banks' ability to honor existing line of credit commitments; we have significant indebtedness and may not be able to meet our debt service obligations; costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations; uncertainties associated with environmental and other regulatory matters; potential changes in political environment and reduction in federal and/or state funding of our governmental tenants; we may be subject to litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition; changes in tax laws impacting real estate investment trusts and real estate in general, as well as our ability to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code; and other factors detailed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this supplemental report. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this supplemental report, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
